There is no right way of doing a wrong thing:
ethics is crucial in research and innovation
To fulfil the goals of RRI, moral deliberation needs
to take place continuously and is a responsibility
shared by all actors involved
“Ethical reflection is not new,
but the transformative power that science and technology
make possible requires us to engage in new ethical reflection,
taking into account the values and the ways of thinking that guide us"
Édith Deleury, President of the Québec Commission for Ethics in Science and Technology (Canada)
“Science is not neutral. It can have both positive and negative consequences.
Scientists increasingly have to face the ethical dilemma of the consequences of their research.
And, thus, their responsibility in science governance“
René von Schomberg, Directorate General for Research, European Commission
Incorporating Research
Integrity
Sharing
responsibility for the
impacts of science
Reflecting on people’s ideas
and concerns about R&I
Aligning research to social
values
Deliberating on the
moral issues of R&I with a
diversity of actors
Research and Innovation policy should be
consciously developed, making sure regulations
are in conformity with shared values and meet the
ethical demands of society
Research integrity and moral deliberation on
scientific processes and outcomes are key
requirements for both individuals and institutions
By providing tools and training for critical thinking,
education can promote society’s participation in
ethical deliberation concerning R&I
Why is it
relevant
according to
your R&I
profile?
Industry related research and social actors should
work together from the beginning to embed ethical
considerations in their R&I processes
Citizens’ involvement is essential for realising
ethically acceptable research and innovation that
is aligned with society's values and demands,
while minimising risks and maximising benefits
